The Kindness of a Rogue by Nancy Butler
3.0
The premise: Sara Cobb, a penniless governess, meets Grenville Martyn in the train on the way to her new assignment as the governess for a spoiled brat of a girl. A quote from amazon.com: "Headed for her new employment, a governess meets a fellow traveler. Despite the ill rumors surrounding her handsome stranger, she falls for him-an affection that will be sorely tested when they reach their destination."
Miscellaneous notes: This has to be the first book I actually thought needed to be longer. It felt as if one or two entire chapters were edited out for some reason. The relationship really needed more pounding out by the author. I wanted to hear more of what was going on in their respective heads.
It was refreshing to read about two people who weren't peers of the realm. And Gren, despite the fact that he was on the grey side of the law, really was a great guy.
Overall, worth reading. I was so glad that this one turned out better than the one before it.
